Welcome to Urban Abroad a blog about travel and urban living.

This online travel magazine is curated by a collective of writers and designers who love to travel together as well as travel solo.

As our time becomes more and more precious we strive to fit more time in for both work and play.

Slow travel, cultural escapades, long weekend trips, and sustainable adventures are what we love more than anything in this world.

We work around the clock and want to teach our readers how to do the same but in a more responsible way.

In turn, this motivates us to share our knowledge and experiences from cities around the world that we’ve visited or lived in for a period of time.

We share things we have learned in relation to:

Responsible travel
Sustainable and smart cities
Green initiatives
Social projects
Urban food production
Migration and refugees
Climate change and much more

Although a major part of what we write is about travel, our site is designed to inspire, inform, advise, and share useful information about good practices and future challenges in cities around the globe.

We believe that travel can expand your knowledge and give you more tools to make better decisions and think outside of the box when it comes to a healthy work/life balance.

This site will also show you how to live a more sustainable and environmentally friendly lifestyle as you travel; that way you can design your own style or simply just benefit from the tips in our travel blogs.
